Claims that pure deterministic parallelism gives the same result regardless of cores and scheduler and avoids data races while still getting real speedups, demonstrated with GHC runtime sparks, work stealing and primitives par and pseq, higher level strategies like parListChunk and the array library repper. Shows ThreadScope profiling, spark histograms and spark pool overflow (100000 sparks vs a 4000 pool), a portfolio report case (hundreds of portfolios, chunk 10 scales to 4 cores) and a Los Alamos simulation that is clearer in Haskell and scales well.

close this, then clear every filter — or just the search, while you are typing in it

Ignored while you are typing. Pages without a filter rail have no search to focus.
